We divide 408610 by 72
We're looking to find how many times 72 goes into 408610.

Step 1:
If we divide 4 by 72, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 4, we get 4.
Include the next digit (0) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 40 / 72

Let's proceed to step 2:
72 goes into 40 0 times with a remainder of 40.
The number 0 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 40, we end up with 40.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 40, then carry on: 408 / 72

Advancing to step 3:
The number 72 fits into 408 5 times, leaving a remainder of 48.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
If we take 360 away from 408, we end up with 48.
Append the next digit (6) from the dividend to 48 and continue with: 486 / 72

Step 4:
The number 72 fits into 486 6 times, leaving a remainder of 54.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 56.0
Subtracting 432 from 486 leaves us with 54.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 54, then repeat: 541 / 72

On to step 5:
When dividing 541 by 72, we get 7 with a remainder of 37.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 567.0
The remainder is 37 after subtracting 504 from 541.
Grab the next digit (0) from the dividend, add it to 37, then carry on: 370 / 72

Step 6:
72 goes into 370 5 times with a remainder of 10.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5675.0
Deduct 360 from 370 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 7:
The number 72 fits into 100 1 times, leaving a remainder of 28.
Use 1 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5675.1
Deduct 72 from 100 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 8:
The number 72 fits into 280 3 times, leaving a remainder of 64.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5675.13
Subtracting 216 from 280 leaves us with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
640 divided by 72 is 8 with a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5675.138
If we subtract 576 from 640, we get 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 10:
If we divide 640 by 72, we get 8 and a remainder of 64.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5675.1388
Deduct 576 from 640 and we're left with 64.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 640, and continue the process.

After the division, we end up with 5675.1388 and a remainder of 0.00064.
